All three victims were rushed to the same hospital but the little boy was pronounced dead upon arrival.

The wife and mother of the victims, Janet Owusu, told journalists that as the suspect accosted his husband and son with the machete, she quickly ran out to raise an alarm amidst shouts for help.

She revealed that the suspect had been reported to the police before by his mother but was released on bail not long before the incident.
